Pros

When it was a Hewitt LLC, it was wonderful and I could not put a price tag on making less than at other organizations but absolutely loving the people I worked with. Great benefits, free food and very familial atmosphere. All changed after going public and Aon purchase in 2010.

Cons

I was let go after 24 years of first Hewitt and then Aon Hewitt and the timeline was very mysterious. It came within 2 years of me reporting my manager for unprofessional behavior that would normally lead most HR organizations to terminate an employee immediately. He mocked a disabled person with mental challenges and did an imitation of this person during a joke he told a group of us in the office. HR had him apologize is all. From that point, I went from an employee honored several years prior as employee of the month to one that was suddenly struggling. I also had reported that several managers wanted me to skew data on contractual obligations to avoid a 50k monetary penalty. I reported this to no avail as well. The clients I worked on when this happened were Allstate and JCPenney. (Also General Dynamics at one point earlier in my career) When Aon bought Hewitt, the culture changed from collaborative to "knowledge is power" and became very cutthroat. They changed open air environments into closed door offices with administrative cubes outside of them. They still used the word "secretary" instead of "administrative assistant". You'd think that considering Hewitt outbid Aon for decades and had 80% of the fortune 500 companies benefits administration that Aon would adopt Hewitt's consulting strategies but instead their buyout resulted in hierarchy where you knew who your boss was instantly. The boss I was referring to was a colleague of mine while at Hewitt and left for 5 years, was unemployed and returned to get a job at Aon just prior to them buying Hewitt. So he went from being unemployed former co-worker to my boss. Suddenly.....my performance was slipping and after helping over 100 client teams in my career, I found myself out of a job after reporting ethical and other concerns to HR after 24 years. No severance. A former partner of Hewitt told them this time last year that she did not like the firms new direction. She has been there 34 years and gave her 2 weeks notice. They said to her, "that is not necessary, you can go today". No thank you,, retirement party or well wishes.....just "leave now". Terrible company,

Pros

The people are pleasant and the work is challenging and exciting. Many opportunities to work with both local teams and teams in other offices. If you're willing to put in the effort the opportunities to grow are endless.

Cons

Onboarding and training process is lacking. For new colleagues you're almost expected to figure everything out yourself. It's good to figure out some pieces on you're own but without formal training integration into the team is slow.
